Top Ten Links Week 16

My personally selected top 10 from the links I shared on Twitter from 4/16/2010 thru 4/22/2010 1.

Tim O’Reilly Explains the Internet of Things via mlx – be sure to read the article too 5. Are we surrendering our privacy too easily?

Do you hide it from your boss? Do you think it’s ok to Twitter from work? Do you think it hurts your performance? I’ll even answer them myself first. Yep! Nope, in fact I sometimes point him to particular Tweets or conversations on Friendfeed. Yes, I do. Not all the time not every day, but yes I do.  For me its no different that water cooler talk with coworkers who I see face to face.  I get valuable information and feed back from both sets of people but in the middle we talk about trivial stuff, tv shows, lunch, etc. No I don’t, like all things I do it in moderation, some days more some days less.  With my job, like so many, focusing on technology etc,
